Here's an illustration I did for my birthday party flier, which we celebrated at Boiler Room in the East Village.

Western landscapes

I was again commissioned to do several more landscapes, for mini-series I'm working on. Inspired by Carl Rungius' paintings of the Canadian Rockies, I kept the colors within the 1930's styles, but erred on the side of violet and gold (per the designer's request).

Eucalyptus School

In the 1920s, the California Impressionists had a following of artists that painted Southern Californian eucalyptus so often, they were deemed the "Eucalyptus School."

For the miniseries that I'm working on, I was commissioned to paint some Pasadena landscapes in the vein of the California Impressionists. Here are two of the larger paintings, to be displayed in a 1930s restaurant!

"Get away from her, you BITCH"



It was only a matter of time before I inserted myself into a scene from the "Alien" franchise. I mixed a few elements from different photos I found online, although the following 5 are the basis for my illustration.

"There isn't enough life on this ice cube to fill a space cruiser." - Han Solo



Instead of a typical Jedi costume, I thought it would be fun to insert myself into the battle of Hoth from "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back." I actually had about two dozen reference photos to use. I was going to put in snowspeeders and AT-ATs, but the concept worked better simplified. Just a guard over Echo Base, in the calm before the storm.
